No doubt we won't see a list until Friday, if at all.
From the write up on the website there are 3 internationals - Chris Brocksopp from the UK and Allan Woods and Nick Cameron from Australia.
Also from the write up it looks like the new 1NZ Randy T and the Grand Prix winner Keegan Levien are coming.

"Superstock racing once again takes centre stage this weekend with an international flavour for the 248 Global Challenge at the Robertson Holden International Speedway. A Stockcar teams race and the Manawatu Adult Ministock Champs complete a packed night of action.
Defending PN PartsWorld 248 Superstock Global Challenge champion Simon Joblin will be keen to continue his good run on home soil, after winning the Manawatu Champs here before Christmas. All three Joblin brothers are in exceptional form, with Adam and Scott anointed 2nz and 3nz in Whanganui a fortnight ago. The visiting charge will be led by 1nz Randal Tarrant from Hawkes Bay and Grand Prix winner 5w Keegan Levien.
338gb Chris Brocksopp is the most experienced of the overseas drivers, having competed at this event for the last couple of years and the ENZED Superstock Teams Champs for the Great Britain Lions several times. 28au Allan 'Wildman' Woods is also returning for his third crack at the Global Challenge, accompanied this time by fellow Australian Nick Cameron.
A Stockcar teams race adds to the entertainment on offer.
Defending Manawatu Adult Ministock champion Shaun Hayman has since moved to Stockcars, so a new winner will be crowned on Saturday night. Current season points leader 157p Jack Lammas-Martin and last season’s points winner 44p Dylan Barclay must start favourite, but one mistake is all it takes to drop out of the running in this competitive class.
Stockcars and Youth Ministocks complete the race programme which commences at 6:30pm. Admission prices are Adults $25 (16 years and over), $10 for children aged 8-15, and $60 for a family pass of 2 adults and up to four children. 7 and under are FREE."

A pretty big compliment you give to Palmy when you consider 1NZ, 2NZ, 3NZ, GP winner and heaps more top quality cars and drivers racing "basically a Palmy club night." Last week in Palmy 32 Superstocks raced, this week there will more than likely be more. Nothing to see ? you must be blind. |

Why would Rotorua travel all the way to Palmy , when the biggest meeting of the season is only 6 days after this meeting ,I see a few on the Auckland entry list ,sp good luck to them. |

It's not that Rotorua want the P drivers at Rotorua for the world 240's it's that the P drivers want to be there. |

I've maintained for a long time that 1 of the reasons that Palmy drivers are more successful than Rotorua & Stratford drivers even though numbers at the 3 tracks are similar is the percentage that will travel to other tracks during the season It doesn't matter where the national title is the majority will be there, same for the 240s. The same can't be said for most tracks |

There should be a few Wanganui cars there. Darryl Taylor is a past winner of the Global 248's, and Kerry Podjursky will be there.

That’s an interesting thought don’t drivers when there tracks aren’t racing choose where they race not what we assume I see 16+ cars from Huntly Kihikihi Rotorua Bay Park supporting Auckland superstock champs this weekend and that’s awesome well done those drivers for supporting this event |

I would be guessing that as Auckland is closer that would get more support from the tracks up around there from them than come here.. as I would think the cars from this region would come here🤷♂️
No entry list so either it's just a normal palmy meeting possibly..
Last year's meeting was really good so I'll still be going.
